I loved how Adelle was saying how British she was. :D

And dude, I'm curious as to why TSCC was called "To the Lighthouse" - was there an actual lighthouse that they went to? I had to read the book a few weeks ago.

There was, actually. The place where Charlie lived was by a lighthouse.

What's the book about?

It was like an elegy for Virginia Woolf's mother. Her mother had died when Woolf was around 13 or so, and so she grew up without her. Basically, it's about this rich family who have a vacation home in Scotland. The mother is very positive/optimistic, and tells her children that they will go to the lighthouse the next day, while the father wants to be honest above everything else. He is harsh and tells the children that it will be too stormy. The first day that takes place in the novel is about how the mother effects everyone a different way and how they all need and love her. She dies in her sleep, and for ten years the summer home decays with time and slowly falls apart. People decide to restore it, and then the family who have been kind of uncomfortable with each other since, have decided to go back and see the lighthouse. It's a pretty good book. Kind of stream-of-consciousness narrative, so a bit frustrating at times. But the themes behind it were really touching. Have you seen The Hours? Apparently that movie's based on another ( ... )

So now we have two actives who have been exposed to Rossum and threatened it directly. But what about the other researchers? In this world of non-disclosure agreements, I’m cynical that those aren’t enough to keep Rossum satisfied and not paranoid.

And Caroline! I kinda knew she was one of those do-gooding people from the videotape Alpha sent but, I just loved seeing how awesome she was - dedicated, focused, smart and compassionate.

NSA? NSA!?! LOL, I love Topher.

I think this is one of those episodes that I'm going to have to watch again, as my mind was focused on the funny, and not on what else was going on in elsewhere in the scenes.

But is does help my Dominic is the guy in the inside theory.
